Mount Rundle

You can see the Hoodoos below.

You have Tunnel Mountain right there, Mount Rundle, and then these big open views throughout the Bow Valley.

This is one of those places where I think the effort to view ratio is pretty spectacular.

You basically get out of your car and there it is.

Similarly, of course, we need to add on Vermilion Lakes.

Now, I feel like I talk about Vermilion Lakes all the time, but there's a reason.

Across the water, you have Mount Rundle, especially in the morning, if it's calm with it reflecting in like such a classic Banff view.

Now, you can drive Vermilion Lakes Road, or you can bike it, or you can walk part of it.

Johnson Lake can have some really beautiful fall colors, especially when those shrubs start to change color, making it a perfect easy hike in the fall.

And then as you keep going to Two Jack Lake, you have that lake, Mount Rundle, and some sections of fall color around the shoreline and the surrounding area.

And then of course, Lake Minnewanka itself.

You can simply walk along the shoreline or just enjoy the views from around the day use area.

Back closer to the town of Banff, of course, Vermilion Lakes Road is another easy one.

You know, we've talked about it before.

Mount Rundle across the water, and in the fall you can get beautiful fall colors around the shoreline and the wetlands.

I especially like that area early in the morning or later in the day, you know, when you can get some of those mountain reflections on calm water.
